Kathleen took good care of our Ellie. She had a ball playing with another puppy she was caring for. So thankful to have found Kathleen.

Kathy has been caring for our pets for 4 or 5 years now. She's there for us, whether we are taking one day from home or two weeks out of the country. We never have to worry about them, even when they are on medications or need special care. They love Ms Kathy, and she loves them. We were fortunate to someone as caring and responsible as Kathy, and hope she'll be watching our babies for a long time.

Kathy and her husband Bob have made their home my pets' home away from home over the last five years. She has a beautiful home, so welcoming to dogs and cats with comfortable beds, toys, crates, treats, and a safe fenced in back yard. She feeds and administers medication to our exact specifications. She and Bob are loving, attentive animal people who cherish all the animals they care for. Her care schedule is flexible whether it's for an afternoon or an extended stay. I highly recommend Kathy to care for your pets.

Pets

A typical day

We’ll play in the backyard. I’ll throw them balls, sticks and a frisbee. Inside, we have a lot of dog toys to play with, including tug of war and toys and bones to chew on.

0 to 15 lbs
16 to 40 lbs
41 to 100 lbs
Dogs over 1 year old
Spayed and neutered dogs only
No females in heat
Kathleen can host up to 2 pets per night
It’s important that all pets be spayed and neutered, house-trained and up to date on their shots. It’s good to know how well they get along with other dogs and cats.
